Jeremiah Murimi, a Kenyan electrical engineering student fixes a bicycle-dynamo to the back wheel to power a mobile phone "smart charger" at the University of Nairobi, July 27, 2009. Murimi uses old bits of discarded electronic equipment from radios, television sets and computers for the project. Smart charger users will spend an hour of cycling to fully charge a mobile phone, about the same duration it would take if it was plugged into the fixed electricity socket.
